Old HezarjaribHi! The Old Hezarjarib article is one of the oldest orphans on the english Wikipedia. I tried to de-orphan it but I have a some doubts. Please see the Talk:Old Hezarjarib - Mazandaran page for the discussion. My gut feeling is that the article should be merged with Hezarjarib District but in the absence of references I cannot be sure. Can someone shed some light? Thanks!

Removing Invitation to review AfD discussion – Hamzeh NajafimehrHello everyone, I’d like to kindly request feedback from members of WikiProject Iran regarding the article Hamzeh Najafimehr, which is currently under deletion discussion. The article has been significantly improved with coverage from major Iranian and international media (e.g., IRNA, ISNA, Hamshahri, Khabar Online, Verna Magazine), as well as international invention awards (Geneva, Seoul, Thailand) held under the supervision of WIPO. If you have time, your input as neutral editors would be greatly appreciated: Discussion link Thank you very much for your time and support.

Attempts to discuss and reach consensus on the talk page has gone without effect for Hashim-afc as they continue to incorrectly revert and remove the sources in the article.--Bijanii (talk) 19:34, 16 May 2025 (UTC) Image discussion (2025) at Talk:Second Cold WarLink: Talk:Second Cold War#Consensus on "event" to warrant images or infobox. George Ho (talk) 21:41, 19 May 2025 (UTC) Unsourced moves of various Iranian villagesCould anyone more familiar with Iranian geography than I am please reivew the contributions of User:سپهراد آمیتیس, especially the page moves? They appear to have moved a number of Iranian villages to new names with no sources, and did not respond to my request that they provide sources. I haven't been able to find any, but this isn't really my area. I reverted one, Darshanemu, but don't quite feel confident enough to mass revert here. Rusalkii (talk) 20:54, 30 May 2025 (UTC)

The contest will run from 1 July to 30 September, and the objective remains the same: improve as many articles relating to developing countries as you can to help fight systemic bias on Wikipedia. In other news, we have a new face on the coordinator team this year: last year's sixth-place finisher, Arconning (talk · contribs)! The coordinators would like to extend a sincere thanks to Ixtal (talk · contribs), who is leaving the team, without whom the contest would not exist. After feedback from contestants last year, the scoring rules are undergoing some modifications; the new rules and a summary of the changes made will be posted to the contest talk page shortly. If you have any questions, please leave a message on the contest talk page, use the {{@DCWC coordinators}} template, or contact one of the coordinators: Arconning (talk · contribs), sawyer777 (talk · contribs), or TechnoSquirrel69 (talk · contribs).

I assume most sources are in Iranian, and annoyingly, I seem to be geo-IP blocked from some Iranian English content (probably because I live in Korea and trigger some spam/security flags on their severs? Shrug). Amway, any fixes to the article would be welcome, TIA.

Translation help needed for bilingual welcome template
Hello. Can you help verify a brief, English-to-Persian translation in a welcome template? Template:Welcome-foreign is a bilingual welcome template used to welcome new users who have written content in some other language besides English. The template welcomes them first in English, then in their own language, as long as it is one of the three dozen languages it can handle. New languages are easily added. I have added support for 'Persian', but I don't know Persian (Farsi) so I used automatic translation to create Template:Welcome-foreign/Persian from the original at Template:Welcome-foreign/English. I'd appreciate it if a native Farsi speaker could verify or improve the translation. (Note that the term 'Persian' is used as the language name in English corresponding to language code fa; see meta:Table of Wikimedia projects#Projects per language codes, and look at the row for Farsi under language code = fa: in column one of the table. 'Farsi' is available as a redirect in the template.) Feel free to edit Template:Welcome-foreign/Persian directly, or paste a better translation below, if you prefer not to edit a template. Thanks!
